It's a little annoying to hear people say things like "we have thirty-bazillion RCB's, so we can't possibly release debian 2.2 until the turn of the century," when some of the RCB's are for packages that have *never worked* (e.g., xemacs21). It would be nice if there was an easy way to determine which RCBs will actually delay the release, and which will be dropped or ignored, so bug-swatters could better focus their efforts. Mike Stone
